For more information and complete cast breakdowns: www.mercurysummerstock.com AUDITION PREPARATION: Please prepare two short musical selections of contrasting styles in your key; bring sheet music in the correct key; an accompanist will be provided. GENERAL REHEARSAL INFORMATION: Rehearsals will be weeknights 6:30-10:30 and Saturday afternoons 11:00-4:00. No Sundays. For productions involving children, every effort will be made to release them early, but, as our rehearsal period is short, the entire cast will be expected at all rehearsals for tech week. Rehearsal conflicts need to be very minimal or none at all. CASTING REQUIREMENTS: Equity & Non - Equity. Most roles are open (see specific show breakdowns for which roles are cast). Mercury Summer Stock is committed to non-traditional casting. Actors will be cast solely on the basis of talent, except in cases where age, race or physical ability are essential to a role. Ages listed in breakdowns are "character ages" not actor ages. Actors selected for casting may be cast in more than one production for the season. COMPENSATION: There are salaried AEA contracts available. All non-AEA actors appear in Mercury Summer Stock productions on a volunteer basis.
